Napa Valley

Cork

A long, cool growing season, with harvest from the end of September to the end of October, delivered fantastic flavour development.  More Bordeaux-like than most in the tasting, it was highly aromatic, with a lush cassis, violet and graphite nose, and intense flavours of dark plum cherry fruit, cocoa, and notes of espresso. It’s expressive right now, yet the powerful tannins say it’s got years to go. One for collectors.
